While Stefano relishes his Free Software client for Second Life, BoingBoing brings us this beauty:
Get a First Life: "Your World. Sorry about that."
The website states that "First Life is a 3D analogue world where server lag does not exist", and encourages us to "Go outside -- Membership is free".
One of the main features of First Life? "Fornicate using your own genitals." Hey, I'm a resident!
What makes this parody even cooler is that Linden Labs, the company that runs Second Life, sent the author a "proceed and permitted" letter, the opposite of the usual "cease and desist".
UPDATE:
Dedicated First Life residents might also be interested in gadgets such as pMail and the iPad. Unusual for Apple, the latter even comes without crippling DRM!
